Daniel Naber has been busy adding to the KDE.org family. Docs.kde.org is a new KDE documentation site which features KDE user documentation for both the 2.2.2 and HEAD (updated daily) branches. The documentation is both browseable and searchable, and developers of KDE CVS apps can link directly to the appropriate documentation from their application's homepage, saving some work (url format: http://docs.kde.org/<VERSION>/<PACKAGE>/<APPNAME>/, e.g.,
http://docs.kde.org/HEAD/kdenetwork/kmail/). While only available in English at this juncture, the goal is to eventually add all the translated documentation as well. A very useful new addition to the KDE.org family, thanks, Daniel!

Actually this service does not use meinproc either, but xsltproc. meinproc is only a wrapper around libxslt, meinproc's main task is to care about the chunking, i.e. the splitting up of the HTML into several files. The documentation related software may seem complicated at a first glance, but in fact KDE is using standard tools that are easy to work with.

Already on it. I've been looking for something to contribute to KDE - I emailed Daniel as soon as I saw docs.kde.org, and I've already started working on it - it will be inspired by, but nicer than PHP's annotation system.

wget ?? What's that? Anyhow, the website didn't work. Any other ideas?
No I don't use Linux. My rinky dink system can't handle the conversion from Windoze 98 (let alone the conversion from 98 to 2K, XP, ME, etc) but I do want to read the documentation ahead of time to get a feel for how to use K. TIA.
